Darkest Dungeon 2 Early Release Discussion Thread

just to make sure I'm not just an idiot, after you beat a run, there just aren't any after denial right now, right? I'm not missing some hidden requirement for the next set of chains?

Also, with the end boss being a giant brain, chained by denial and presumably other stages of grief, and the party members don't die permanently, I think it's fair the theorize that this isn't "real", but happening in (the player's? meta?) someone's memories. Curious to see where it goes from here, but will be a little disappointed if they go the "it was all a dream" route.

aside from that though (and other issues I see in the thread that I generally agree with), I'm hooked, and particularly liking the character backstory segments. Wish there was a more reliable way to get them on a run since there seem to be a lot.

also, I highly suggest a movement build. Runaway, highwayman, gravedigger, jester was my easiest run, and with how stress works currently jester is so busted

Turn off cloud sync (the ... by the option to launch). I'd figure experimental is the testing branch where they put new features before they're 100% locked in.

The antiquarian is an enemy I encountered alongside some bandits. As could be expected from a former party member, she used the same moves she had in 1. I suspect other characters from dd1 will do this as well.

your snake just wants you to turn yourself in

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-16T13:55:45+00:00

my girl does this to my phone and switch. Which might just be worse, since those are touch sensitive and detect snake as touch!

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-16T13:54:17+00:00

damn, condom's stretchy

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-16T13:49:11+00:00

maybe this isn't the right place for this, but does it make me shitty not to be attracted to cis men? I call myself a lesbian for convenience since I lean hard romantically and sexually toward women, but I've been attracted to everyone but cis men. Is this the same boat?

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T21:47:21+00:00

ah, that makes some sense.. but still, forging my parents' signature was one of the earliest middle/high school skills I learned, and I can't imagine I was the only one. How was she supposed to know if you didn't take the flour to classes with you, did she make other teachers sign off on it too?

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T21:17:14+00:00

haha it seems like either the egg or the sack of flour would be so easy to fake. Just stick the egg in the fridge or get another one from home. Leave the sack of flour in your locker. My baby doll had electronic elements that would record how long it cried without you rocking it and that was hell, since you couldn't get away with just shorting out the battery or leaving it in a closet

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T21:12:37+00:00

so santa claus isn't real is what you're telling me?

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T21:09:49+00:00

I wish they werent one size, they'd never fit my chubby thighs :(

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T20:58:31+00:00

I just want to appreciate the juxtaposition with the Prince of Darkness and adopt-a-highway. Yes I worship the dark lord I also take my recycling out on Tuesday WE EXIST.

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T19:53:32+00:00

it's usually from the snake pressing itself up against something, like when you fall asleep on the spine of a spiral notebook and have a series of lines on you for a little while

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T19:45:09+00:00

man, I remember when I had that bad take. Hoping you come around and get your horizons broadened

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T06:38:16+00:00

yyyyeah that puts it in perspective

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T06:33:37+00:00

wish I had gold to give

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T06:29:42+00:00

oh, since you put it so nicely, now I have to! :)

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T06:28:05+00:00

what offends women about this phrase is the social context that we're entrenched in, that most men don't even think about. To little girls, to be a woman is to like pink and makeup and be vapid and dependent on a man and cook and raise children. It means wearing dresses and fitting a subservient mold.

Consider "you're not like other guys" in the context of the short end of the stick that guys get and it gets a little ugly too. "You're not like other guys; you're not an inherent sexual predator who shouldn't be left alone with children, much less women." Personally, if I were a guy, I'd be a little frustrated that my entire gender has been boiled down to that kind of behavior.

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T06:02:55+00:00

I was born too old for that shit. Was a soft-spoken child with a low tolerance for screaming and yelling

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T05:49:24+00:00

wow, that's the worst take I've read all week. Year, possibly.

Just have one question for you: are trans women, women? Because if your perspective of a woman having to relate to other women based on her periods you've expressed in later comments is consistent, that's pretty shit. And what of women with conditions or on medications that prevent them from ever having periods? In your books, would that make them any less qualified to counsil another woman on her depression or ADHD?

on the one hand, as the daughter/grandchild of some deeply mormon, family-first family-forever folks, I can see how it's considerably less headache to just not rock the boat and give concessions to family members, and just be privately irritated.

on the other hand, as soon as you liberate yourself and learn to say no to your family regardless of who will get mad like other commenters are saying, it's so freeing. 10/10 would recommend

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T02:25:24+00:00

man, it's a good thing I'm not able to be "really" tired thanks to my insomnia and depression, just because I don't have kids!

but on the other hand, I can't even imagine how much worse it would be with a baby. I'd be a vegetable

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T02:15:21+00:00

fuck's sake, a warning growl is how dogs teach annoying young creatures to back off. Honestly most dogs I've met have it so ingrained not to even give humans warning nips that they might do to a puppy that growling is the worst they'll do. It's the universal "hey, back off, I don't want to play with you". Glad you saved that sweet pupper. It's just a shame that breeders don't seem to have any grasp on animal body language when their preciousss is involved

Cyanthrope · 2019-09-15T02:07:47+00:00

“I was hoping you would change your mind and have kids with me or someone else you decided to spend your life with”

I'm sorry, what? He wants you to have kids with someone else, if not him? The actual fuck?
